City Council hears request on community garden

City Council heard a request Monday to try to improve the community garden in an attempt to bring more new gardeners in.

During the public comment portion of Monday’s council meeting, Havreite Dale Shulund asked if two trees could be cut down in the garden located near the S-curve between 10th Street and 11th Street by Montana State University-Northern.

Shulund said the trees are throwing patches of shade in which plants won’t grow, and said if the city would cut them down, he would build tables to set on top of the stumps.
